Levant always reminds me of that whining brown-noser kid in school who found that becoming the school rumour mill gave him the opportunity to belong. The teachers thought he was cute and desperately in need of attention so they pampered him, but everyone else felt he was a pain in the gluteus maximus, like something stuck to your shoe that had to be scraped off on the school trash can.
But I guess he found his niche in life being a provocateur of subtle racism and media spin equal to the Enquirer. Rather sad really, considering his own people had to face the same, and one would think he would have learned something about hate and misinformation and lies insomuch that he would never do the same to other human beings. But I guess he either learned nothing or, he found it was easier and more financially beneficial to join the same type of gang mentality that caused so much pain and suffering in the past. But one finds this kind of personage in life….the kid who was abused and becomes the abuser, the kid who suffers in an alcoholic family and becomes an alcoholic himself, the rebel who once fought for a just cause only to become the same type of tyrant he overthrew.
And of course Levant appeals to those like him, the powerful who love his support and those without any real power to flex their hatred so they jump on his wagon in the hopes that being part of it all, somehow the power will rub off on them.
The police removed him because he was turning a peaceful rally into a photo op and the more agitated he made the people the better video he got for his next spew. I would enjoy debating Levant but I doubt he would be interested in truly listening. The woman for example who talked about ‘his racism’ and how it has affected people. He of course said ‘what did I do”. What she meant was the racist mentality. The woman was attempting to express her feelings and Levant knew Very well what she meant but because she was not, lets say articulate enough…..he played her. Levant could never last in a truly intelligent discussion with people who know facts. He would never last a minute with someone like Dr Palmeter. She would dance all over him like a dirt floor in a Texas bar.
The rest of his babble about the Jewish person with a dog who was detained at the rally….well he hasn’t told the whole story. The cop who did the drumming in Sarnia…well he was smart….good public relations with people go further than the end of a nightstick. Then the so-called ‘trespassers’ in Caledonia…..how can they be trespassing on ‘their’ land?
Levant lives of sensational journalism (not that he could ever be in the same context with real journalists). He has removed himself from logic, compassion, understanding and human integrity and sold his soul for 30 pieces of silver.
